[Bf-funboard] Rotation on background images

[Knapp]

Viewport shading:render does not work in cycles with empties or background
images. It would be nice if it did.
Empties do have trans setting but it is still not as fast a work flow but
 it is nice in that you can do any angle. You can only turn it on and off
in the outliner and that is not as easy as wit background images.
